Review: Skinfood Green Coffee Lip Scrub

Hello lovelies! I'm so sorry for neglecting my blog. You see, after i finished my exam, my dad bought four tickets to Bali. Yes, i went to Bali after my exam for four days and three nights. I don't have internet during my trip because my dad doesn't allow it. But don't worry, I'm back and going to review another product! (9 ' ')9 

A week before my trip, i asked my dad to re-stock my Etude House Precious Mineral BB Cream, and he said yes! But secretly i also ordered Nymph Aura Volumer & Skinfood Green Coffee Lip Scrub without him knowing it. xD

Product name

Skinfood Green Coffee Lip Scrub

Description

Exfoliates dead skin on lips. Contains a sugar content of orange and black, it also moisturizes lips with

oil content of green coffee rich in antioxidants.

(i use google translate for this, click here for more info.)

The bottom part.

Jjang! Made in Korea!

I've always wanted this product so bad ever since i saw it. This lip scrub comes in a very handy lipstick form which will last longer than any other lip scrub, even the ones you made at home! You can keep this inside your make up pouch too!

Packaging

Dominated with the green (?) and brown color with Skinfood logo in the middle. No illustration whatsoever. I find it so boring. >_> But it does look pro (?) to me. I love the transparent seal and coffee bean-like logo (?) though.

With flash. 

Without flash.

(ignore my laptop, i was watching Running Man at the same time.)

Directions

Use the lip scrub and massage softly from one corner of your lips to another corner. Remove remaining scrub with tissue or warm water.

I've already used this lip scrub for weeks at night, right before bed, before washing my face with cleansing foam. And the results are quite good for me. I have a very dry and chapped lips and in desperate need of lip scrub. Not only that, my upper lip color is darker than my lower lip. If you're Indonesian, I'm sure you've seen a lot of people with a dark upper lip. I envy you all who have pink and healthy lips. And because of that, i can't wear lipstick with bright colors. <_<

This lip scrub is also said help remove dark color on your upper lip. And it did. You'll see a slight change color on your lips after weeks of application. Using this lip scrub before bed is now become my daily routine. :) Oh! It also smells like coffee. The smell is a bit strong the first time you tried it on, but after a while you'll get used to it. Those who doesn't like coffee smell might not like this product.

Likes

- Comes with a lipstick form

- Removes dead skin on lips

- Moisturize lips

- Easy to bring with

- Smells like coffee

- Cheap

Dislikes

- Doesn't remove all dead skin on lips

- Packaging's not cute at all

Overall: 3.5/5

This is a quite good lip scrub since this is my first lip scrub. I didn't buy it directly from Skinfood branches, i bought it online while it's in ready stock for IDR 85000. I don't know the exact price if you buy it directly from Skinfood branches, but online shops usually sells Korean product 50% to 60% cheaper from the branches, so just times 2.

Will I Repurchase?

Actually, i don't know... :|

Writer's Tip

Ever had that moment where you're about to go on a date, someone's wedding, or other special occasion but at the moment your lips are dry? Here's my tip:

1. Use your lip scrub and massage your lips for 1-2 minutes

2. Remove remaining scrub on lips with warm water

3. Use your lip balm to moisturize your lips

4. Use lip concelear

5. Use your favorite lipstick

6. If you want to achieve juicy lips, use lip gloss

If you want to use lip tint instead of lipstick, here's my tip:

1. Use your lip scrub and massage your lips for 1-2 minutes

2. Remove remaining scrub on lips with warm water

3. Use your lip balm to moisturize your lips

4. Use lip tint (apply few dots and spread evenly with finger

5. If you want to achieve juicy lips, use lip gloss

So, have you tried them on? What do you think about it? Do share your thoughts. :)

Xoxo. <3

Dear My Blooming Nails #3 Breathtaking Pink

Eau de Toilette: Fruity Floral Fragrance 

I love love love the packaging, really! It's so cute and princess-y. The packaging itself force you to buy them (this happen to me) (~` `)~ I love the ribbon attached to it, it is so cute! <3 And if you take a closer look on the lipstick, there's a heart-shape Cinderella carriage engraved on the lipstick! Love Etude House packaging! <3

Ladies, this is a great nail polish, trust me. You only need one coat on your nails. The bottle is made from glass so be careful, okay? I once saw a blogger who accidentally dropped this and it broke into pieces. The pretty color spread on her floor. I can't imagine if the same thing happen to me.. o.o Oh! And if you can't see the heart-shape Cinderella carriage on the lipstick, well, take a look here instead! <3

Eau de Toilette: Fruity Floral Fragrance

No, this is not a toilet perfume or whatsoever. This is a normal perfume, like your usual perfume. I really like the bottle perfume, it's the same bottle as the nail polish above and i'm planning to use the bottle for my perfume. xD The smell, i don't like. The name speaks for itself, it smells like lemon and i don't really like citrus perfume. Well, depends on your personal taste.

Packaging

I don't have to repeat myself, don't i? xD

Price

Pricey if you buy it from Etude House branches, i remembered and i think its around IDR 380000. Try your trusted online shop. ^^

Likes

Cute packaging. <3

Cute heart-shape Cinderella carriage

Dislike

Maybe the smell of the perfume..

Pricey if you buy it directly from Etude House branches

Overall: 4.5/5

Will I Repurchase?

Will i? The whole box? I think not. Maybe i'll buy this as a birthday give for a friend. And maybe i'll repurchase ONLY the nail polish (around IDR 68000 at every Etude House brances) xD

Good night and sweet dreams everyone. <3

Review: It's Skin Secret Body Solution Whitening Essence

I already told you all that i am on midterm exam, right? Well, i got really lazy to study since tomorrow's exam are Bahasa Indonesia and Physics. My Bahasa Indonesia teacher make his own exam question, but the thing is, one question = one page. Imagine, every exam he had to make 50 questions (all multiple choice) or 40 multiple choice and 5 essays. I got really sleepy just reading one question. -_-

My brain right now just shuts down and turned on right away when i was thinking of making another review. Weird.. xD

Contains 75ml of product. At first, i thought it's exactly like Scion Whitening Roll-on because they both have the same amount of product and had the same purposes which is for whitening. But when you open the cap, it actually had a sponge attached to it. And inside this product is water-like, which doesn't last long because every time you use this, a small amount of special liquid inside will gone.

This is what the back of the product looks like. As you can see, you can use this whitening essence on your knees, elbows, under arm, etc. I use only on my knees and elbows because the skin around that area is rough and really dark. >_> I want to at least soften that area and brighten it even just a bit. Some of my friends ask me why is my elbows and knees are so dark. I hate hearing that, i really do. >_>

                       

Sponge attached to it. Making it easier to use the product. But be careful if you try too hard the sponge might fall off.

Packaging

Not cute at all. Too plain. Only pink color and some writing. Boring. >_>

But i do like the shape of the bottle. It's so sexy like a body of a super model. (/* *)/

And the shape of the bottle give you a nice grip.

Price

I bought mine from one of my trusted online shop for IDR 105000 with pre-order 14-16 days.

Be patient okay. :)

Likes

The shape gives you a nice grip

Easy to apply

Dislike

Doesn't last long

Doesn't worth the price

Packaging too boring

Sponge might fall off if not careful

Overall: 1.5/5

I bought mine a month ago, i think. And been using it every day before going to school and bed. Results? My skin around elbow and knee area isn't as rough as before, it makes my skin soft and brighten it at the same time.

Will I Repurchase?

Maybe not. Maybe i'll try another whitening essence. If any off you guys know a really good one and really worth the price, do tell. xD

Gah, why do i love blogging at midnight.

Good night wonderful beings. <3

Review: Etude House I Need You, Lemon! Mask Sheet

Finally, a review! >.<

Sorry to kept all of you waiting. This time I'm going to review one of Etude House mask sheet, it's called I Need You, Lemon! Mask Sheet. Pretty cute name, huh? I got this at Etude House Kota Kasablanka for IDR 28.000. You can get a much more cheaper price at online shops, but i hate waiting. And i've been dying to try this one.

23 ml (0.77 fl. oz.)

Description

Essence mask contains lemon extract that brighten and clarify skin tone. Tension fit design for improved facial adhesion and comfort.

Ingredients

Water, Glycerin, Citrus Medica Limonum (Lemon) Fruit Extract, Butylene Glycol, Cyclopentasiloxane, Citrus Paradisi (Grapefruit) Fruit Extract, Alcohol, Cyclohexasiloxane, Polysorbate 20, Phenoxyethanol, Dimethiconol, Acrylates/C10-30 Alkyl Acrylate Crosspolymer, Triethanolamne, Disodium Edta, Fragrance, Squalane, Vitis Vinifera (Grape) Fruit Extract, Citrus Auratium Dulcis (Orange) Fruit Extract, Pyrus Males (Apple) Fruit Extract, Citrus Aurantifolia (Lime) Fruit Extract.

Directions

Hold and apply sheet according to diagram. Pull tabs outwards against facial surface to incite tension fit.

I did exactly as it said. I leave mine for 30 minutes while watching Fox Crime. And it's a little bit itchy around my forehead and cheek, but don't worry it's nothing serious really. Once you remove your mask sheet, the itchiness will disappear. The holes and the mask fit perfectly on my head, but not on my chin because my face is oval. The mask also doesn't have a very strong citrus smell, which i think is good. ^^

Doesn't have a very strong smell

Holes fit perfectly

Dislikes

A little bit itchy once applied on face

Mask doesn't fit around chin area

I picked this one because the function itself is for brightening. A few days after use this, i realized my face was a bit brighter than usual especially on my forehead. I recommend this mask sheet if you want to brighten your face. Ignore the itchiness. XD

Will I Repurchase?

Of course! XD
